Is there a new Batman game in 2026? There's never a bad time to go on an adventure with the Caped Crusader, and luckily, we have another one to enjoy. Better still, it's a Lego game, so let's get into everything you need to know about what the Dark Knight is getting up to in 2026.

I have a lot of fond memories of the Batman games on Switch and mobile, especially the Arkham series, of which Asylum is the best, and I'll take no questions about it at this time. However, Legacy of the Darknight might end up being my favorite Batman game to play on the go.

What are the New Batman game platforms?

Lego Batman: Legacy of the Darknight is coming on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. However, we know it's coming to Nintendo Switch 2 very soon, too.

What is the new Batman game like?

Legacy of the Dark Knight features action sequences and some puzzle-based elements, just like any other puzzle game. While it draws inspiration from famous Batman adventures, the game features an original story and supports multiplayer. However, in an interesting move for a Lego game, it has just seven playable characters, which is exceedingly low compared to other games like it.

New Batman game release date

Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight launched on May 22, 2026, with the Switch 2 version due to arrive on September 18, 2026.

A lover of all things Nintendo and mobile, she also enjoys taking long walks with Geralt of Rivia while she’s not playing Pokémon, Life is Strange, Poppy Playtime, DBD, or FNAF, that is. Failing that, she’s probably searching for new Roblox giveaways or testing out the latest OnePlus and the best gaming phones. For more of her words, head to PCGamesN, The Loadout, and Wargamer. Oh, and she doesn’t think that Skyrim is a good RPG, she has the audacity to think it’s boring.
